The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

charlotte_s's review against another edition

adventurous challenging emotional inspiring medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

I think this book is so incredibly clever. If I hear how a book ends, it puts me off reading it. But in this book, a few times it is mentioned what's going to happen at the end of that chapter, section or the entire book. Yet I still wanted to read on!

Buku yang dari awal sudah memberikan bocoran mengenai apa yang akan terjadi.

Sejak awal buku berhasil mengajak masuk ke dalam dunianya. Dibuat merasa menjadi sahabat Liesel dan ikut tumbuh bersamanya.

Setiap kali lanjut ke chapter berikutnya, selalu bertanya "Apa yang akan terjadi?" dan terus membaca sambil mempersiapkan diri.

Namun meskipun sudah diberikan bocoran dan mempersiapkan diri tetap saja air mata pecah banyak-banyak! Hati remuk untuk Leisel dan karakter2 di dalamnya.

A very heart warming and gut-wrenching at the same time book.

Brilliant writing style, the unique perspective of death was so haunting, yet so loving and it brought this uncanny sense of comradery to a time full of hatred and misery. Such a beautiful story, one I will read time and time again.
